Why is summer sweet
And winter bitter
Why do the stars shine
And Venus glitter
Why is coal black
And diamonds bright
Why is the day short
And dark at night
I often wonder
Why the sea is salt
And tears run in the rain
I have no idea, my dear
It's a common refrain
Why is autumn
A riot of red
Why does the spring
Give birth to the dead
Why does the weeping
Willow weep
Why do we dream
And why do we sleep
Why is life brief
And d**h oh so long
Why have I
Come To the
End of this song...
